One of the things I learned soon after starting to work in an online business is the importance of public relations for making yourself known<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you’re a small fish in the vast ocean of the Internet, getting someone interested in you is quite a challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, if you lean on those who already have a reputation<\/strong>, you can substantially speed up the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s the magic of good old-fashioned public relations applied to the online world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this article, I’ll talk about the figure of the digital PR<\/strong>. We’ll discover what their job entails, its importance for the growth of a company, and how its functions are closely related to SEO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let’s get started!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What does PR stand for<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

PR stands for public relations<\/strong>. In Spanish, it can also be seen as RR.PP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It refers to the set of techniques we apply to make a brand known<\/strong>, as well as all the news associated with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although it’s true that it has a lot in common with advertising, you shouldn’t confuse the two concepts:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Advertising seeks immediate impact, generally to increase sales.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Public relations are a long-term strategy<\/strong>, aimed at strengthening the brand by establishing solid links with other stakeholders.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    What it means to be a digital PR<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    A digital PR is a public relations professional who specializes in the online world<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Their work focuses on improving a brand’s image on the Internet, taking advantage of the momentum provided by tools such as inbound marketing, digital newspapers, social media, influencers, or search engine presence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    In this way, they achieve a series of high-value benefits for a company or business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Benefits a Digital PR Brings to a Business:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • Brand awareness.<\/li>\n\n\n\n

    • Increased traffic.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • SEO optimization.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Boost in sales.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      What Does a PR Do in an Agency?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      As part of an agency, public relations professionals are responsible for designing a professional action plan that strengthens and boosts brand image<\/strong> by establishing connections with various entities, such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      • the media.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • internal company departments.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • investors.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • government agencies.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • customers.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • etc.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        Digital PRs can employ a multitude of strategies to enhance brand awareness: from press appearances to engaging with influencers, managing social media, or organizing special events, among many others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        If you’re curious about this whole array of techniques related to digital marketing and PR, don’t worry, we’ll get into them later on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
